Patent EP-0396771-A1 (EP)
Inventor: TASHIRO MIKIO
IPC: D01F6/84
Filed: 1989-10-27
Abstract: Polyester fibers of type A having a single yarn fineness of up to 1 denier are obtained by melt-spinning a copolyester of an intrinsic viscosity of 0.35 to 0.50 containing 0.5 to 7 mol % of a sodium 5-sulfoisophthalate component and 0.5 to 10 mol % of an isophthalic acid component and having main repeating units of ethylene terephthalate to obtain a nonstretched filament, and flow-stretching it with a draw ratio of 5 or more. Polyester fibers of type B are obtained by neck-stretching the type A fibers. Polyester fibers of type C are obtained by subjecting the type B fibers to limited shrinkage treatment. Nonwoven fabric is obtained by cutting at least one of these fibers to a length of up to 15 mm and, if necessary, compounding the cut fibers with other fibers such as regular type polyester fibers, wood pulp or glass fibers in an amount of 10 wt.% or more, and making a sheet therefrom by the wet process. The obtained nonwoven fabric has a soft hand and a uniform weave and is improved in strength and elongation.

Abstract: A method of contraception is disclosed which comprises a two-stage protocol. In the first stage, an estrogenic compound in a first composition is administered daily as the sole contraceptively active substance to a human female from about Day 2 to about Day 7 of her menstrual cycle, where Day 1 is the first day of menses. The second stage of the protocol occurs immediately thereafter during which at least one follow-up composition containing a progestin is administered daily to the same human female. The follow-up composition can contain a progestin as the sole contraceptively active ingredient, or can contain a combination of an estrogenic compound with a progestin in different weight ratios. A drug delivery system containing daily dosage units is also described.
Patent EP-0392306-A1 (EP)
Inventor: WILMOT DONALD W
IPC: F42B15/01
Filed: 1990-04-02
Abstract: A nonelectronic device tracks and homes in on a target to be destroyed by a projectile having a body in which the device is carried. An optical (14) lens disposed in a nose cone of the projectile body (10) receives and focuses infrared radiation (IR) or heat from the target, which is an electromagnetic field that may be emanating from an exhaust plume of an incoming enemy intercontinental ballistic missile. A detector converts the radiation focused by the lens (14) into thermal energy. A Golay-type cell (16) receives the thermal energy and converts it into a fluid signal that is transferred via a nonelectronic coupler (20) to a fluidic circuit. A fluidic rate gyro (24) seeks the target and guides the projectile towards the target to be destroyed. A key advantage of the invention is that the nonelectronic infrared heat tracking device is composed of inert mechanical elements and fluids. Therefore, the device is unaffected by intense magnetic and electromagnetic fields. Furthermore, the detector and the subsequent fluidic circuit are not subject to damage when the nonelectronic tracking device is exposed to the intense EM fields that are produced by rail gun launchers, microwave antisensor weapons, and the like, as is the case with conventional electronic trackers.

Abstract: A liquid separator of the present invention comprises a first plate member (2), a second plate member (3) forming a receiving portion between it and the first plate member for receiving a flexible liquid container (8) including liquid separated into the upper liquid layer and the lower liquid layer, and pushing means (7) for pushing the second plate member toward the first plate member, said pushing means automatically pushing the second plate member with gradually decreasing pressure after starting the discharge of the upper liquid layer from the flexible liquid container. Therefore, the upper liquid layer can be discharged from the flexible liquid container without disturbing the boundary between the upper and lower liquid layers in the flexible liquid container. Thus, the upper liquid layer can automatically and efficiently be taken out from the flexible liquid container without mixing with the lower liquid layer and without any complicated and troublesome manipulation. If the discharge of the upper liquid layer is automatically stopped with a sensor detecting the boundary between the upper and lower liquid layers, it is possible to decrease errors of the sensor caused by the disturbance of the boundary.

Abstract: The electric brake control for motor vehicle trains is equipped with an anti-blocking system whose parts which are shared between the power unit and the trailer vehicle can be electrically coupled to one another by means of a 7-pin standard plug device (2) with 5 pins being used. Furthermore, an electric brake control is provided which comprises a brake pressure control device (21) in the power unit and a brake pressure controller (25) in the trailer vehicle which are electrically coupled to one another by means of a cable connection (23, 24) which is guided via the sixth pin of the standard plug device (2); the cable connection (23, 24) serves here for bidirectional signal transmission. Furthermore, provided in the trailer vehicle there is a vehicle diagnosis system (26) which is capable of diagnosing at least the brake pressure controller (25) with peripherals. For the purpose of diagnosis, a diagnosis test unit is to be electrically connected to the part 4 of the standard plug device (2) associated with the trailer vehicle when the trailer vehicle is uncoupled, the K line being coupled via the sixth pin and the cable (24) and the L line being coupled via the seventh pin and a cable (28) which leads from said pin to the vehicle diagnosis system (26). The electric brake control permits normal driving and diagnosis operation for the trailer vehicle by means of the standard plug device (2), it being possible to connect the diagnosis test unit in a simple manner. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A remote control device is specified which is intended in particular for controlling motor vehicle accessories, such as additional vehicle heating units, an air-conditioning unit, a sliding roof, an alarm system or the like. A remote control device of this type comprises a transmitter and a receiver, where the receiver can be operated with a predetermined timing ratio of activated state to de-activated state and the transmitter remains autonomously activated during a predetermined period of time. The timing ratio is preferably 1:4, the predetermined activated duration of the transmitter is at least about 5 seconds and the predetermined duration of the activated state of the receiver amounts to about 1 second. This type of remote control device allows quiescent power consumption, in particular of the receiver, to be considerably reduced, so that undesirable discharge of a battery feeding the receiver, such as the vehicle battery in the example of a motor vehicle, is prevented. The reduced quiescent power consumption of the remote control device according to the invention allows the remote control device to be maintained on standby even over a lengthy period of time. <IMAGE>

Abstract: 2-O-α-D-Glucopyranosyl-L-ascrobic acid is crystal­lizable in its supersaturated solution. Crystalline 2-O-α-D-­glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid is substantially nonhygroscopic, free flowing, free of deliquescence, consolidation and direct reducing activity, but is readily soluble in water. Because of these, crystalline 2-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid is handleable with an ease, and superiorly high in stability and physiological activities. Thus, crystalline 2-O-α-D-gluco­pyranosy-L-acorbic acid is favorably useful in vitamin C-­enriching agents, foodstuffs, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.

Filed: 1990-08-10
Abstract: Apparatus (10) for controllably advancing a high pressure water jet (18) across a moving paper sheet to cut a tail therefrom. A hose (22) supplies pressurized water to the jet (18). A drive mechanism (14, 16, 92) advances the jet (18) and the hose (22) at the same rate across the paper sheet. The hose (22) is supported on a rotatable reel (26) during the advancing operation, in a manner which avoids the application of tension or compression forces to the hose (22) and prevents repeated flexing of the hose end at its connection to the high pressure water supply. A drive chain (16) is coupled between the jet (18) and the reel (26), whereby movement of the jet (18) causes corresponding movement of the chain (16), which causes corresponding movement of the reel (26), to uncoil or recoil the hose (22) at precisely the same rate as the jet (18) is advanced or retracted.
